The Dingman Center for Entrepreneurship produces Bootstrapped, a podcast featuring founders, investors and serial entrepreneurs. The podcast is hosted by Elana Fine, Managing Director of the Dingman Center, and Joe Bailey, Associate Research Professor at the Smith School. Each episode brings a different startup story to life with special guests offering advice and lessons learned on topics that range from fundraising and marketing to team formation and customer acquisition.
In honor of Smith Women’s Month, this episode of Bootstrapped features Ursula Mead, the female founder of InHerSight.com. The website appeals to users eager to rate their experience at companies as a female employee. Unlike other job sites, InHerSight.com gathers data on the female perspective and became a prime location for companies looking to recruit women. Ursula monetized her company by selling data insights back to the companies rated on her site. Now three years old, InHerSight.com has over 170,000 users and 30,000 companies on its website.
Ursula Mead is a product leader with over 10 years of experience delivering business results by purposefully developing products and improving member experience. She combines business strategy, operations, data analysis, customer knowledge, a collaborative and competitive spirit and a deep love of product to drive measurable outcomes. She is also the founder of InHerSight.com.
